The nice thing about this thing is it's portable!!

Video update!!

http://video.freevideoblog.com/video/f4 ... 039e3a.htm

No sound, because of crappy camera.That thing is loud!!

After I hit the red bull cans, I had no more target so I emptied the gun on the cardbord support.

Hope you guys enjoy the vid.Let me know!!

I just went out to shoot with my brother.
We took three bottles along as targets.
Set them up in a field, pumped the gun back up to 14 bar and let it rip hehehe

WWWWWWWRRROOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPP!!!
the three bottles shattered and collapsed on top of each other in a miserable pile :P
My brother was very impressed :shock:
Two marbles bounced off and took out two windows on a greenhouse about 100 meters away. :oops:
Fortunately the greenhouse had stormdamage already.
I thought I picked a good spot...
Whatever...It was very very cool!!

Very nice damage. Could you post a pic of some of the shreaded can?
So the marbles in this cannon have to travel through an elbow to get into the barrel?
Forever dreaming...

Trew the cans away.Only two were cut up, two just fell because they lost their support.
Yes the marbles go through an elbow.Some break up and come out like shards.
Just about 2 out of 30, so what the hey...

SO!!, just go shoot some more cans. :P Why don't you get a pipe bender to make a large um, larger radius pipe?, a pipe which doesn't have a tight bend in it but is still 90', you know what I mean. I can buy bends like that here.
Forever dreaming...

Because I had looks in mind as well.A larger curve woud not fit against the bottle as tight as this set up.

Anyway.The rise tube will be replaced by another wich has a rubber hose inside it.
No more shooting cans in the garage.
Too loud..
